    Synopsis

    Gabriele Michel and Franco Rosa brought the THEATER IN DER ORGELFABRIK in 1987 to life. Inspired by the unusual room and space of the old organ factory (OrgelFabrik) at Karlsruhe Durlach, the two theater enthusiasts produced their first piece in winter 1987. Behalf of the fact that the old building didn't provide any heatingsystem they decided to continue as a 'Summertheater'. The THEATER IN DER ORGELFABRIK exists since 24 years, producing every summer one or two dramas as an world premiere, all the pieces are written by Gabriele Michel and staged by Franco Rosa. In 2011 filmmaker and cameraman, Henning Stirner, followed the theater folk by their work at their production: The Master and Margarita an adaption of the book from Michail Bulgakow. The filmmaker watched the two heads of the THEATER IN DER ORGELFABRIK while they stay in India developing the play, he watched them writing and discussing on the terrace of the beachhotel in Goa. Back in Germany he documented all the steps of producing the piece, from the very first rehearsals to the premiere.
